Sponsor Specific Training Requirements

Sponsor Specific Requirements

Federal agencies require that individuals applying for and conducting sponsored research complete ethics and security training.

Individuals affected include UIS-affiliated faculty, staff, and students who are appointed on funds, or who are involved in published research or scholarly activities that acknowledge funds from sponsor agencies requiring research training.

Questions about these requirements may be addressed to the UIS RCR Officer, Dr. Lucía Vazquez (lvasq1@uis.edu, 217-206-8112).

If you received an email from GrantForward, it is not spam or a phishing attempt. This is a grant database that UIS is subscribed to. Previously, it only had accounts for faculty and those who opted in. Today, accounts went live for Civil Service and Academic Professional employees. 

This is how the Office of Research and Sponsored Programs will begin sending out monthly newsletters at the start of the Fall semester to increase efficiency and have better usage metrics than the email version we've been using.

Don't hesitate to reach out with questions!

Subawards & UI System Collaboration

Subawards & University of Illinois System Collaborations

Important Distinctions:

Not every subrecipient of funds can be budgeted as a subaward. There are different rules with indirect costs and different tax implications - it is incredibly important to determine if the subrecipient is a contractor or a subaward. Improper categorization in the proposal budget can delay payment after an award as been issued.
